How we work

Since 1987, the Rainforest Alliance has worked to build a global alliance of people who share our vision of strong forests and thriving communities. Today, we work with rural communities in 76 countries around the world to conserve forests, support sustainable livelihoods, and restore balance to the planet we call home.

The members of our alliance—from farmers and foresters to businesses and consumers—share a steadfast commitment to finding creative, pragmatic solutions to some of the world's most pressing challenges.

Measuring Our Impacts
